FC CLACTON manager David Coyle wants his players to take advantage of a favourable FA Vase draw when they launch their campaign on Saturday.

The Seasiders are preparing for a first qualifying round tie at home to Stansted (kick-off 3pm).

If they win, they face a winnable trip to Essex Olympian League Newbury Forest.

Coyle does not want to get ahead of himself or take anything for granted.

However, he knows his players have the potential to win both games, building momentum and generating some much-needed income in the process.

“The potential is certainly there to get through a couple of rounds,” he said.
